Can our experts help halt that hip pain?

The number of patients having replacement surgery has soared from 6,000 to over 41,000 in less than a decade in Britain.

While many blame the rise in obesity as the cause, even some of our fittest and healthiest can’t escape the hip pain that leads to surgery - and Sir Andy Murray has been forced to undergo surgery which has put his professional tennis career in question.

So just what has he had done? We’ll be finding out from the woman behind the surgery, leading orthopaedic surgeon Sarah Muirhead-Allwood. She’ll be joined alongside Dr Hilary Jones - who today tells us for the first time about his own surgery - and who will be showing us some simple exercises that can help to alleviate hip pain you might be having both pre and post op.
